Chapter 1514: 1521

One weekend, while accompanying a group of women and inspecting the giants, Simon also paid special attention to the operation of a company.

Scober.

At present, DVD has shown the momentum of rapid rise. In the western market, DVD basically tends to replace video recorders. In the Asian market, VCD seems to be still prosperous, but this year has also belonged to the highest state of the industry. Next, it is bound to decline, and the speed will be very fast.

As the largest supplier of technologies such as VCD video decoding chips and complete machine solutions, scober had to face very severe transformation problems due to the outbreak of the Asian market a few years ago.

The first is the video decoding chip.

DVD video decoding chip, because of its insufficient patent accumulation, if it was once, scober had only one way out.

However, with the intervention of Westeros system, we have made use of danilis' advantages in content to exchange certain interests with major manufacturers who have mastered various DVD patents. Coupled with OEM manufacturers and broad market in China, scober still occupies a place.

But it's just a firm foothold.

The main interests this time will only be DVD Patent Alliance manufacturers such as Panasonic, Hitachi and Toshiba.

However, as for the transformation, scober has actually achieved some success.

In the previous 96 years, at the peak of the first wave of bull market in technology stocks, and also at the most beautiful stage under the outbreak of VCD sales in the Asian market, the company began to deploy and transform, not only transferred to the chip product research and development of WiFi and Bluetooth wireless transmission technologies under Simon's arrangement, but also quietly acquired some wireless communication technology companies.

One of them is called Botong.

Later, more people only knew about Qualcomm, but in fact, it was also a supplier of wireless communication technology products. Broadcom was completely equal to Qualcomm in related fields. Later, Qualcomm once hoped to acquire Broadcom in order to further monopolize wireless communication technology.

This is later.

In short, scober's transformation was very successful.

At present, scooter has not only become the world's leading WiFi and Bluetooth new film manufacturer, supplying chips to manufacturers such as tincobell, IBM and HP, but also become a supplier of wireless communication or cable TV related chip products of technology giants such as Nokia and AOL.

Because of this successful transformation, and the business related to the original VCD and emerging DVD video decoding chips is still stable, scober's share price has also recovered rapidly and risen steadily in the past two years. As of recent trading days, the market value of the company, which also belongs to the ranks of new technologies, has reached US $38.7 billion.

In contrast, Qualcomm, another wireless communication technology company that Simon has been paying close attention to, had a market value of only $27.6 billion last Friday.

That's why Simon pays attention to scober.

Since Qualcomm tried to acquire Broadcom in the past, Broadcom is now a part of scotop. Scotop's market value is higher than Qualcomm. Can we take advantage of the trend and make a reverse acquisition?

This is actually a problem Simon began to consider very early.

Do you want to take Qualcomm in its entirety, or which company will take Qualcomm for digestion?

Simon had already taken a stake in Qualcomm for a long time, and later he ate it many times. According to the latest data, only Westeros had a 32.7% stake in Qualcomm, not counting the shareholding of black rock asset management company and other related capital under cersei capital.

Therefore, Qualcomm has always been among Westeros concept stocks in the new technology market.

Then, standing in Simon's current position, he is actually very dissatisfied with Qualcomm now or Qualcomm in his memory.

Another company on the other side of the ocean can start from scratch, make switches, routers, chips, mobile phones and finally become the leader of 5g technology. If the other company goes public, it will definitely become a big Mac in the technology market.

However, Qualcomm, for decades, is still Qualcomm.

To put it mildly, Qualcomm's business model is patent licensing, which adheres to the open business ideas of the West and makes mobile phone chips at most.

Not really.

Qualcomm has also tried to make communication devices and mobile terminals. As a result, they all failed.

Failed.

So we can only rely on the patent blocking fees accumulated in advance under the name of open gimmicks.

There is no shortage of capital and technology, because our country is strong enough and no competitor dares to sanction a company in the name of national security. In the end, we can only think of increasing market share through further mergers and acquisitions and further monopoly. How can it be satisfactory?

Actually, another one, Cisco.

And Nokia.

Moreover, Simon also found the crux.

These companies have taken advantage of the opportunity of the times because of an excellent professional manager. Cisco is John Chambers, Nokia is yoma Olivia, and Qualcomm is simply the son of Jacob family.

However, the agents who created brilliance finally became the old kings who held power and didn't have enough enterprising spirit. So, one by one, they stagnated, and even collapsed like Nokia.

Simon was first introspective.

Simon certainly knows that people are inert, and efforts go against human nature.

However, he happens to have higher power than those professional managers, and he has not lost his enterprising ambition. Therefore, at the right time, even if it will cause criticism, Simon will let some people step down when it is time to step down.

If you don't want to go down with dignity, force them to go down with dignity.

In short, since scooter's team is doing well, Simon wants scooter to eat Qualcomm.

Just this past weekend, Simon, who has been hesitant, also made the final decision after communicating with the scober team.

After all, this is also the last chance.

One of the reasons why Qualcomm's current market value is not so high is that the business potential contained in the company's third-generation communication technology patents has not been fully brought into play.

However, it will play out soon.

Because Simon is about to push Verizon to update and upgrade its mobile communication network as soon as possible and move forward to 3G.

Once in the United States, the update and iteration of communication technology was very slow. In fact, there was only one reason. It was too expensive. The technology of the old generation can still be used and generate good profits. Why spend a huge amount of money on the renewal of the next generation? Isn't it laborious and thankless?

This is actually a common phenomenon in the west after entering the new century.

That is, when China has entered the 4G era and the optical fiber era, some western countries are still using 3G and dial-up Internet.

Either there is no technology, or the profit seeking nature of capital.

Is the choice made by capital by nature right?

Simon can't give a perfect argument.

However, Simon knows that taking the United States as an example, a big reason why the United States was able to get out of the great depression in the 1930s is its extensive infrastructure. After World War II, the rapid development of the U.S. economy again relied on large infrastructure such as the U.S. national highway network.

A little further and more widely, the reason why mankind can enter the industrial society from the agricultural society and the large infrastructure of the railway network connecting all continents of the world is definitely one of the fundamental reasons.

Even further, a grand canal can be regarded as a major infrastructure.

If there is no dragon boat in the water hall, Gongyu won't do much.

What is the most fundamental theory that infrastructure drives social progress? It is very simple to improve production efficiency and productivity.

Productivity!

In the information age, in addition to the traditional infrastructure, high-speed broadband, wireless communication, large data centers and so on are also infrastructure.

Infrastructure in the new era.

Having recognized this point, Simon will not allow Verizon and AOL to refuse to upgrade their technology for short-term capital interests, regardless of the choice of other capital.

Therefore, Simon's requirement is that Verizon must complete the technical iteration from 2G to 3G in the next two years.

As for 2.5G or something, forget it.

This means that once the technology upgrading starts, it is inevitable that other communication manufacturers will be forced to follow suit for technology upgrading. At that time, the value of 3G technology patents held by Qualcomm will increase rapidly.

By winning the company in advance, Simon can not only avoid more variables, but also change the development track of Qualcomm.

After all, the most important thing is that we can basically collect money by relying on patent barriers. It's a little better. We can not only make another mobile phone chip, or at least, if the communication base station can't do it, it will be blind to the deep barrier level technology accumulation. In addition, 4G and 5g can also be laid out more deeply in the future.

In short, since the foundation should have been laid down, Simon felt that at least it could not be worse in the future.

When the matter was finalized and Simon left the bay area on Monday morning of the new week, scober also began to organize a special team, and contacted Westeros and cersei capital for assistance to launch the annexation plan of Qualcomm.

Simon didn't think it would be too difficult.

According to the proportion of shares held by Westeros, it is already the largest shareholder of Qualcomm, far exceeding the original co founders. Next, when scooter launches an acquisition from Qualcomm, Westeros will naturally use its own voting rights to cooperate.

Even, if Qualcomm does not agree, it is nothing more than a forced hostile acquisition.

Once this happens, it may lead to the dispersion of the original founding team. Simon really hopes that the current team can stay temporarily. However, if you can't keep it, Simon won't force it. After all, it's just a few years ahead of schedule.
